Maldonado Dodges Straight Draw
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Action was caught on the flop of 8?A?9?, in a hand between Jesus Maldonado in the small blind and the player in the cutoff.
Maldonado check-raised to 13,000 over the cutoff's bet of 5,5000. The cutoff then came over the top and shoved all in for 39,500 total. Maldonado made the call.
Cutoff: 6?7? 
Jesus Maldonado: A?J?
The J? turn and 2? river offered no help to the cutoff, and Maldonado's two pair, aces and jacks, took down the pot.
